**BREAKING: ELEPHANTS FORM UNBELIEVABLE “EARTHQUAKE ALERT CIRCLE” AT SAN DIEGO ZOO SAFARI PARK – IT’S A MIRACLE!**
In a jaw-dropping display of pachyderm preparedness, a herd of elephants at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park was caught on camera forming a perfectly circular “alert formation” when startled by a sudden earthquake yesterday evening.
Eyewitnesses claim that the elephants, who were peacefully munching on some tasty hay, suddenly froze, trumpeted loudly, and sprang into action as the ground began to shake.
“It was like they had been training for this moment their whole lives!” exclaimed zookeeper, Jane Smith. “They instantly formed a tight circle, with their trunks entwined and their ears flapping in unison. It was truly a sight to behold!”
The video, which has gone viral on social media, shows the elephants standing shoulder-to-shoulder, their eyes fixed intently on some unknown threat. The camera captures the moment when the earthquake hits, and the elephants spring into action.
“I was standing right next to the enclosure, and I felt the ground shaking beneath my feet,” said zoo visitor, Tim Johnson. “But before I could even process what was happening, the elephants had formed this incredible circle. It was like they were trying to protect each other from an alien invasion or something!”
According to experts, the elephants’ “alert circle” is a rare and impressive display of coordination and teamwork.
“This is not just a simple case of animals reacting to a stimulus,” said Dr. Emily Chen, a leading expert on elephant behavior. “This is a highly complex and sophisticated response that suggests a deep level of communication and cooperation among the elephants. It’s basically like they have their own built-in earthquake detection system!”
The San Diego Zoo Safari Park has confirmed that all of the elephants involved are safe and sound, and are currently being treated to a special “earthquake survival kit” of extra peanuts and belly rubs.
In related news, the park has announced plans to offer a new “Elephant Earthquake Preparedness Course” for visitors, which promises to teach people how to form their own “alert circles” in the event of a seismic emergency.
